Who said anything about attracting inexperienced developers? If anything I'd argue that's a negative for a healthy ecosystem, and I'd argue it has been a negative for Rust.
It's the junior engineers that most often struggle with trying to devise a way to use every language feature under the sun when solving a problem, not the other way around.
...in the Harrison Bergeron sense.
The fact that Rust has attracted relatively inexperienced coders to do bare-metal, real-time programming shows that you don't need to nerf the language in order to appeal to interested developers of all skill levels.
